My friend Alice killed herself after being pushed to forgive and make amends to her father, who molested her for her entire childhood. Well it wasn’t Alice that did it, but Fae, one of her split personalities. I guess not an uncommon result of severe childhood abuse.

......

Very sad, should never put somebody in a dangerous position like that, bad advice. I had a friend who was molested at 13 by an uncle, suffered depression at 18, became schizophrenic at 21, for 30 years she suffered, on tons of meds, she actually was a pt. of mine in ICU. Finally she went to a church and asked for prayer, she was told to go fast and pray for 30 days, she did then came back and was prayed for , God healed her right then. I actually worked with her in ICU after that. She was an awesome Christian, even atheists loved her.

Wow, that’s amazing! And with that background, she could help so many others. Sometimes it takes going through something to have the empathy. I think God allows suffering so we can help others.

(I don’t know why animals have to suffer, so that’ll be my first question. If I get to ask)

Powerful story, norsky. There is a Scripture about some demons only coming out after fasting and praying. I think it’s in Luke, but even some Bibles have removed it. Let me do a little digging.

CottonBall, that’s tragic.

The things people can do to other people…

So much suffering in this world.

I’m sorry about the suffering you’ve gone through.

***hug!***
